Airservices is a government-owned corporation providing safe, secure, efficient and environmentally responsible services to the aviation industry. We manage air traffic operations for around 75 million passengers on more than three million flights every year.

Pilot and airside safety

Safety is Airservices number one consideration and the delivery of safe, efficient and effective operations is core to our business. To fulfil our safety commitment, Airservices has implemented a Safety Management System (SMS) which consists of the policies, requirements, procedures and activities by which we manage safety and minimise risks. One of the key elements of our SMS includes the communication and promotion of safety internally, to industry and to the wider aviation community.

This section includes information about our safety programs, safety publications and our safety calendar. It also allows us to provide you with information to not only make your flight safer, but to give you an understanding of how we work, which will improve the efficiency of your respective flying operations and highlight that we are an important part of your ‘crew’ who can assist you during your flight.
